i didn't see any snakes there but we got mugged by a bunch of Possums. We were told not to feed the animals but we didn't get told that the animals would jump on you and try to wrestle the food from your hands.

I don't remember Snake Lagoon but we did go to Flinders Chase NP. We will never forget the possums in Tasmania at Freycinet NP though. My husband got up in the middle of the night because a possum had got into our garbage bag. The possum bit him really hard on his finger (drawing blood) in the fight over who should get to keep the garbage bag.

We have, as usual, digressed a long way from cycling though........oops

Echidna bulldozing through the roadside shrubbery in Lane Cove Nat Pk. Good thing to avoid running over due to puncture hazard (and not just of the tyres if it brings you down!). Swamp wallaby hopping across the road in same park. Wildlife is in the suburbs!
